  • GPS-based system related to verifiable carbon credits
    Publication number: 20020173979
    Abstract: A system for gathering and organizing land-related information by associating that information with GPS coordinates. The system maps an agricultural field and divides the map of the field into management zones. The boundaries of the field and management zones are defined by Geographic Positioning System (GPS) coordinates. A Geographic Information System (GIS) record is created with respect to each management zone and fields of relevant agronomic information for that management zone are associated with the record. The GIS records associated with the system are useful in verifying Carbon credits (carbon credits), and the mechanisms used to gather the information for the GIS records is useful for accumulating carbon credits.

  • GPS-based system for handling information
    Publication number: 20020173980
    Abstract: A system for gathering and organizing land-related information by associating that information with GPS coordinates. The system maps an agricultural field and divides the map of the field into management zones. The boundaries of the management zones are defined by Geographic Positioning System (GPS) coordinates. The land within a management zone is homogenous with respect to risk factors related to crop failure. A Geographic Information System (GIS) record is created with respect to each management zone and fields of relevant agronomic information for that management zone are associated with the record. The GIS records associated with the system are useful in verifying carbon credits, and the mechanisms used to gather the information for the GIS records is useful for accumulating carbon credits.
